Pressure, Level & Temperature Transmitters & Transducers

OPERATION/MAINTENANCE/HANDLING

The Model 311 is designed to give a 4-20 mA output directly proportional to pressure.  Specific pressure   
range,  input voltage requirements and electrical connections are marked on unit.  See Appendix A for all  
performance specifications.  Standard electrical connection is a HEYCO connector on the I.S. approved    
p½” NPT M on Explosion Proof Series and pressure port is  ¼” NPT(F).  Appropriate mating con
nections are required for proper installation and safety.   Other port and electrical connections are available
and noted as option code in part number.  See Appendix A for list of options.                  

Replace broken fasteners (available through the factory) as they may compromise the seal and cause 
contamination and/or electronics failure.   

Unit can be hot when removed from service.  Wear protective gloves when  handling unit in this condition.
